In the first place thfe cotton mills of England will again be running according to the agreement reached Friday between the em ployers and their liien, and this ought to mean more activity in the spot departme’ftt of the Liver pool market which would stimu late trading on this side. With English mills running full time again, mill takings ought to incr^se and cause the week-end statistics to take on a less bearish look. On Tuesday the last of the semi-monthly reports on ginning by the Census Bureau will be issued. The trade expects bear ish figures which some operators say already have been discounted by the decline of this last week. This report is also generally ex pected to clinch belief in a total crop of at least 15,500,0000 bales. The spot markets; of the South will be closely watched this week for signs of anything extraordi' nary m the demand to fill end of the month shipments. It is claimed by the bulls that shipments this month will be large, and they believe that ship ments this month will be large, and tiiey believe : that shippers have not jet co\-ered all their wants. Bt.’iter weather throughout the week probably would have a con- side] able ucariEh influence on prices. REST AND HEALTH TO MOTHER AHD GH!IB.
